Baby Lyrics

Baby lyrics

my brothers said that i
was rotten to the core
i was the youngest
child
so i got by with more
i guess she was tired by
the time i came
along
she'd laugh until she cried
i could do no wrong


she
would always save me because
i was her baby,i worked a factory in ohio a
shrimpboat in the bio
i drove a truck in birminham
turned 21 in cincinati
i called
home to mom and daddy,i said your
boy is now a man, she said i
don't
care if your 80 , you'll always be
my baby

she loved that
photograph
of our whole family she'd
always point us out for
all her
friends to see
that's greg he's doing great
he really loves his
job
and ronnie with his 2 kids
how bout that wife he's got
and that
one's kinda crazy
but that one's is my baby

i got a call in
alabama
said c'mon home to louisiana
and come as fast as you can
fly
cuz your momma really needs you
and says she's got to see you
she
may not make it through the
night,the whole way i drove 80
so she could
see her baby

she looked like she was sleeping
and my famliy had been
weeping
by the time that i got to her side
and i knew that she'd been
taking and
my heart it was breaking i never
got to say good-bye

i
softly kissed that lady
and cried just like a baby
